Emergency Management
Walworth County Emergency Manager Jeff Jensen was at the meeting with a report on activities in his office. Jensen reminded everyone that a burn ban is still in effect in Walworth County.
Jensen had an update on the Warhawk repeaters for the Lowry, Firesteel, and Dupree sites.

He has several trainings set up:
